Members of the Board of Trustees
Village of Cayuga heights
SUBJECT: Report of the Police Chief for June 1976
/a 9
The Police Department handled-26 complaints end investigated 4 motor
vehicle accidents. There were 49 traffic tickets and 18 parking tickets
issued during the month.
There were two felony complaints, one for burglary and one for grand larceny.
There were thirty -trio misdemeanor complaints, 8 for criminal mischief, 7 for
criminal trespass, 6 for petit larceny, 6 for bad check, 3 for aggravated
harassment, 1 for falsely reporting an incident and 1 for fraudulent accosting.
Two persons were arrested for Driving 1-1hile Intoxicated and one person was
arrested for petit larceny. One juvenile was apprehended in connection
with a curfew violation.
There was a total of $8,439.70 in property reported lost or stolen during
the month and a total of '6264.22 in property recovered by the Police
Department.
On June 27th and 28th, Officer Day traveled to Las Vegas, Nevada with an
officer from the Ithncs Police Dept. to return a felony prisoner to the
Tompkins County Jail. The travel expenses were charged to the District
Attorney inasmuch as the prisoner is now under the jurisdiction of the
County Court even though he was originally arrested by the Cayuga Heights
Police Department.
I would like to a ain bring the Village Board's attention the need for
resolution to the problem of having someone from the Department of Public
Works available for emergencies on nights, weekends and holidays. The severe
storm we experienced on July 11th vas certainly unusual, but the Police
Department is confronted with similar although perhaps less extensive
emergencies on numerous occasions throughout each year in which assistance
is needed from the DPW. I would again urge that the Public Works Committee
meet vith me and discuss a possible solution to this problem.
The officers worked a total of 21 hours overtime during the month.

Harlin R. McEwen 1
